Oil and gas are natural resources that deplete through extraction. In other words, these are not renewable energy sources and our tax code has allowed a depletion allowance of up to 15 to 20 percent*. In addition to the depletion allowance, we have intangible drilling costs as well as tangible drilling costs. There can be additional tax benefits depending upon what type of category a particular project falls into.
